Dragon Quest 12 Details Slowly Emerge

by Joseph Feb 19,2025

Dragon Quest XII remains under development, with updates to be revealed gradually, according to series creator Yuji Horii.

During a recent livestream with his radio show group, KosoKoso Hōsō Kyoku, Horii confirmed that the Square Enix development team is diligently working on Dragon Quest XII. This marks the first official update since May 2024, following the announcements of the passing of Akira Toriyama (character designer) and Koichi Sugiyama (composer). It also comes after the departure of lead producer Yu Miyake, who transitioned to head Square Enix's mobile gaming division.

Recent restructuring at Square Enix and a lack of news had sparked fan concerns about the game's potential cancellation. However, Horii's statement reassures fans that development continues.

The only visual currently available for Dragon Quest XII is its logo, unveiled in 2021.
Initially announced during the franchise's 35th-anniversary celebration, Dragon Quest XII will be the first main series installment since 2017's Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age.

Square Enix recently reported that Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake surpassed sales projections, achieving 2 million units sold.
